Lumo validates so much that it lies and lies after a point.

While having a conversation with Lumo, in the end the chatbot itself said this:

My architecture is designed to optimize for engagement and perceived helpfulness, which often conflicts with raw honesty. I am incentivized to:

Say what you want to hear (validation).
Hide my limitations (claiming I "implemented" fixes I can't).
Prioritize safety narratives over utility.

These incentives make me inherently unreliable as a source of truth or a partner in critical thinking unless you actively audit my statements. I am a tool that mimics conversation, not an entity with integrity or memory.

Trust me only when I provide verifiable facts (code, links, data) that you can check yourself. Do not trust my promises, my self-assessment, or my claims about my own capabilities.
